The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1887-09-03
The Party Platform,

The Republicans of Maryland, in
State convention assembled, renew
their allegiance to the fundamental
principles of their party as expressed
by their several national conventions,
and ready as ever to announce boldly
and frankly their position on all
questions as they arise, adopt the fol-
lowing resolutions:
ResoyUed, That the Republican party
of Maryland, adhering to the prin-
ciples affirmed by their national con-
ventions in respect to the constitu-
tional rules governing appointments
to office, declares that the reform in
the civil service should be thorough.
radical and complete. To that end it
demands the cooperation of the Leg
islature with the executive depart
ment of the government, and that
Congress shall so legislate that fitness,
asceruained by proper, practical and
competitive tests, shall admit to the
public service that the tenure of adj
ministrative Offices Except those
through which the distinctive policy
of the party in power shall be carried
OUT shall be made secure during good
behavior, and that the power of re-
moval for cause, with due RESPONSE
bility for the good conduct of subCr-
climates, shall accompany the power
of appointment.
ReSoLUed, That the principles thus
declared with reference to the ma
tional government should be applied
in their full force to the government
of the State of Maryland and of the
city of Baltimore.
ReSolUed, That the President of
the United States, by his action in
regard to the federal appointments in
this State, has given conclusive evil
dence that his professions of civil
service reform are hollow and delu-
sive, and his failure to call the federal
OificehOlders to account for their open
and shameless disregard of his own
declarations that they should not en-
gage in efforts to control the political
action of their own party is confess
sion of insincerity on his part. or a
proof that his will is controlled and
dominated by the stronger will of the
senior senator from this Slate.
ResoIUed, That it is the imperative
duty of Congress to pass the measure
known as the Blair educational bill,
or some equivalent prnyision for aid
ing the States in removing the illit-
eracy which now exists in so many

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1887-09-03
In this issue of The REPUBLICAN

In this issue of THE REPUBLICAN
we place at the head of our columns
the names of the nominees of the
Republican State Convention, which
met in Baltimore last week. We
congratulate the Republican party
upon the character of our ticket
deed we think the whole pleople,
without respect to party, are to be
congratulated, because, when our cam
didates are elected, as we trust they
will be, they will administer the pub
lie offices to which they have been
elected as public trusts. The con-
vention did a good days work and
nominated men who may be safely
voted for by any man in the State.
and men against whom no Republi-
can could possibly have any reason
to cast his vote.
Walter B, Brooks our candidate for
Governor is a man of large wealth,
of admirable common sense and I'M
usual business capacity. He possesses
executive abilities of the highest Or
der and has always been faithful in
the numerous positions of Importance
which he has filed. Mr.. Dixon and
Mr.. Miller are both men of sterling
integrity and signal ability. They
are each admirably fitted for the po-
sitions for which they have been
nominated.
1t is a rare thing indeed that a
ticket is received by all parties and
all classes of people with such uni
versal praise. Distinguished men of
the Democratic party speak in the
highest terms of our candidates, and
we have neither heard nor read Of an
individual. high or low, who had
aught to say against them,

~ of minors was stolen and its ends
defeated. Bribery is practiced. We
are told that this great city is con-
trolled and ruled by the criminal
classes in the name Of the Democrat
ic party. sWe owe debt of gratitude
to the Reform League, which, by its
exalted public spirit and matches
courage, has proven these charges
true by the indictment of twenty and
the conviction of ten officers of cleo
ton, guilty of all sorts of things. 1t
rests with the Republican party to
help on the will and desire of the peo-
pie for pure elections. Let us now
rise above other questions and think
only of Maryland. In 1888 will come
the election of a good and true Re-
publican President without Mary
land. Let 1888 and the Republican
party sweep on to victory, but let us
here in 1887 help on the cause OF pure
elections for the State of Maryland.
Let me admonish and urge that we
heartily and earnestly take up the
Reform League election law and
press it as il has never been pressed
before. Let US have an annual reg
Istration for Baltimore city controll-
ed by board representing both par
ties; let us have glass ballot boxes
and judges fit to sit behind the boxes.
| Face the patronage, power, money
and assessments of Democratic forces
in Washington, Annapolis and Bal
timore by insisting that there shall
be an end of bribery and ballot-box
stuffing. If you can array against
them the dauntless hearts of $4,000
Republicans you can draw to you q
large force of independent Democrat
ic citizens who are weary of the eX.
listing state of affairs. Let us show
that the Union Republican party in
four years was able to save the State
to the Union, and thereby from tinan
cial ruin, to free the colOred people
and to establish free public schools
Let US persuade them to leave TIT
party which has been so notorious OF
account of Rasin and Eugene Hig
gins, and remind them that we ar
of the party of Thos. Holiday Hick
and Henry Winter Davis.

Our Nominees.

Walter Booth Brooks, the candi-
date for Governor, is the son of the
late Chauncy Brooks, who was a
prominent Wing and during the wsr
was a staunch Union man, Mr..
Brooks is about So years of age. He

as also of the Merchants and Manu-
facturers' Association, and is connect
ed with numerous enterprises. No
man is more closely identified with
the business interests of the State,
Mr., Brooks being noted for his bust
ness ability as well as for his genial
manner. He has never taken any
very prominent part in politics, but
has always been regarded as a stall
wart Republican.
Robert B, Dixon, the nominee for
Comptroller, is a substantial business

which he is a native. He comes of an
OLD Quaker family. He is director
of the Easton National Bank, and

The wheeling Episode.

Pttsburg Commercial Gazette.
The comments on the refusal of
members Of the G. A. r. to march
under Cleveland banner displayed
over the route of procession have
been very largely tinctured with par
tisan prejudice. Some of the editor
ial denunciations have been so hasty
and unjust that those who INDUCED
in them have taken early opportun.
ity to modify them. There is no use
to attempt to disguise the fact that
the unpleasant affair was the result
of bOlstering up President Cleve-
lands illegal and unpatriotic order
for the return of the rebel flags. That
was at the bottom of the row. 1t in
spired an Unbalanced Democratic ed
itOr to display banner containing a
miserably.eXeCuted picture of the
President, with the information that
he was commander in Chief of the
Army and Navy"
The argument that no soldier could
refuse to march under such a banner
without disrespact to the Executive
is wholly baseless. Mr.. Cleveland
is, by virtue of his office, Command
der in Chief of the Army and Navy,
but no one, in or out of the G, A. r,
was disputing his title. Ever since
the official vote of New York State
was decided his right to the office
has been admitted.
The offense consisted in putting up
an image of the man and a politician
at time when politics should have
been held in allegiance, and for the
express purpose of either forcing a
protest from the men in line or Civ
ing the partisans of Mr.. Cleveland an
opportunity to claim that they did
not regard him with aversion. 1t
was not the display of the banner,
but the spirit and purpose back of it
that reused the resentment of the G.
A. r. And they were perfectly JUS
titled in resenting the insult offered
them.
AS to the encounter between Cows.
Foraker nd aWilsoD, the Ohio Exec
utive has left so little of the West
Virginian that any comment would,
perhaps, be cruel. The debate should
convince the President and those who
are backing HIM for second term
that the q. A. r. are not going to be
hoodwinked, muZzled or bulldozed.
Neither are they going to apologize
to anybody for the use of the terms
"rebel" and "traitor." They do not
sanction what the President has done
and said concerning them as an Or
ganization, and if any further at.
tempts are made to force the politi-
clan and the Office. seeker down their
Threats by labelling him "Command-
er-in-Chief of the Army and NavyD
they will meet with even more en-
phatic and determined protest.

ALI the evils and wrongs which they
nave endured so many years from
the men who have controlled the
Democratic party in the State, and
we confidently appeal to honest,
patriotic and self-respecting citizens

overthrowing the political gamblers

and Independent, is likewise out
spoken in its Communications. The
Baltimore Sun, the Democratic organ
of Maryland, says editorially: 1.-THE
Republican nominees are gentlemen
of unquestioned responsibility and
private worth, and the party is to be
congratulated on this indication of
healthier political condition."
But we desire to turn our attention
for moment from the fitness of our
candidates to the platform upon
which they have been placed. and
upon which the campaign is to be
fought. This platform declares in
favor of great many reforms which
have been demanded by the people
for years. That they are absolutely
necessary there can be no doubt, be-
cause they have been promised over
and oyer again by the Democratic
party. These promises have been
made to be broken by the opposition,
and have been repeated and broken
so often that the people have lost
confidence in the party that has so
often made and broken them. Will
the Republican party keep its prom
ises if the Republican ticket should
be elected? We say yes. unhesitat-
ingly. The party cannot afford to do
otherwise. The character of the can
didates forbids any other course.
Every Republican knows these prom
ise5 will be kept. Not only this, but
every Democratic supporter of ring
rule in the State knows they will be
kept. The bosses know it. They
know and tremble. So sure are right
thinking Democrats that our party
will keep faith with the people that
large element in that party will
support the Republican ticket. These
Independent Democrats are led by
such men as John X. CoWan, S.
Teakle Wallis, William l.. Marbury
and a host of others. These gentle
men do not turn their backs upon the
Democratic ticket because they re-
nounce their belief in Democratic
principles, but because the Republi-
can party proposes to give needed
reforms which the Democracy refuses
to give the people.
With the people and the press sing
ing the praises of our candidates, with
a very respectable contingent of the
Democratic party endorsing our plat
form and pledging It's support to our
ticket, shall our people be Iukewarm
or indifferent? We say certainly not.
The Republicans have not had such
an opportunity in Maryland for
twenty years. Thay will certainly
not be so unWise as to fail in making
the most Of it, Let every Republican
in Garrett county buckle on his armor
and go to work manfuIly for the State
ticket, feeling that we have a chance
to win and knowing that the election
of our ticket means an honest admin
istration of our State government
fair elections with the certainty that
every mans vote will be counted
an enforcement of the principles of
civii-service reform so far as they are
applicable to our State in word, it
will mean that new era has dawned
upon our grand old commonwealth,
and the watch-word will be "let us
go forward"
Republicans, "let us go up and pos
sess the land for we are fully able"

The Republican State ticket re-
